Dax to Power Query

I've spent way too long on this, and can't get it to work.  Can anyone covert this Dax into PowerQuery please?  I am not sure if it can be done.

 

The DAX code repeats [Extract_Measure] for each ID

NewMeasure
var form_id = 'Table'[ID]

RETURN
MAXX(
FILTER(
ALL('Table'),
'Table'[ID] = form_id
&& 'Table'[Answer] = 'Table'[Extract_Measure]
),
'Table'[Extract_Measure]
)

I updated my answer, hope this works for you 

 

let
    Source = TableName,
    GroupedTable = Table.Group(Source, {"ID"}, {
        {"NewMeasure", each 
            let
                form_id = Table.FirstN(_, 1){0}[ID],
                FilteredTable = Table.SelectRows(Source, each [ID] = form_id and [Answer] = _[Extract_Measure]{0}),
                MaxValue = List.Max(FilteredTable[Extract_Measure])
            in
                MaxValue
        }
    })
in
    GroupedTable

Hi @Nicole_H 

 

Please check if my approach below meets your need. 

Firstly I have data like:

Add a custom step in the Formula bar directly with below code. Replace #"Changed Type" with your previous step name. 

= Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"ID"}, {{"All", each _, type table [ID=nullable text, Answer=nullable number, Extract_Measure=nullable number]}, {"Filter", each List.Max(Table.Column(Table.SelectRows(_, each [Answer] = [Extract_Measure]), "Extract_Measure"))}})

Expand "All" column in the previous result. Then you will have below result. "Filter" column is the new column we want.

Please provide some usable data (as text, not a screenshot) along with what you expect for results from that data, and the logic required to go from Source data to Results.

Sorry ronrsnfld, I'm using really sensitive data, which is why I gave a vague example, but if the other solutions don't work I'll try and attach something.  Thanks

If you do, use made up data that reproduces your problem. Don't use real data.

let
    Source = TableName,
    GroupedTable = Table.Group(Source, {"ID"}, {
        {"NewMeasure", each 
            let
                form_id = Table.FirstN(_, 1){0}[ID],
                FilteredTable = Table.SelectRows(Source, each [ID] = form_id and [Answer] = _[Extract_Measure]{0}),
                MaxValue = List.Max(FilteredTable[Extract_Measure])
            in
                MaxValue
        }
    })
in
    GroupedTable

 

Thanks for your speedy reply!  Although I don't get a syntax error the new column is returning Error, not sure what I have done wrong (or what I'm doing at all to be honest!)
